    It looks like the frame is the same but the padded bits look more padded and squared off. The passenger air bag cover in particular.

    Maybe it is an SRS compatible Disco bull bar? Although it doesn't look like one.

    I do like these Rangies and would love to mod one just to be different. Leather seats and all the goodies plus decent ****ing air con is a big bonus (mate has a tdi Disco and I'm not a huge Disco fan but I do like his air con. Soft dash Rangies are the same).

    Hope you got it for the right price, most I've seen for around the $10-14K mark but some I have seen even cheaper

    My understnding is that the whole dash was lifted from the Honda legend/Rover Vitesse twins and was designed by Honda..
    BUT of course executed by Rover , hence the heater leaks.
